Chapter 33: Chapter33-The Mysterious Red Light
"Tsk tsk, these little guys."
Noticing the sparkle in the eyes of many male students, Glyn couldn't help but chuckle and chide, "You bunch of novices dare to covet Caitlin?"
"She has not only grasped the S-level talent herself but also possesses an extremely strong combat aptitude, capable of defeating SS-level profession awakened ones."
"Even in much larger cities, among the younger generation, she is considered the best! Not to mention, she is incredibly beautiful and hails from a powerful family. You all are just a group who have achieved A-level awakening, don't even think about it."
Hearing Glyn's words, the group of male students couldn't help but blush slightly, feeling somewhat dejected.
Howard, however, raised an eyebrow slightly. Was Caitlin's talent really that formidable?
Normally speaking, the gap in professional strength was hard to bridge, and unless the difference in talent was extreme, it was impossible for an S-level awakened to be unable to overcome an A-level awakened.
Much like Howard's divine skill talent, the enhancement it brought to the awakened was terrifying, granting him the ability to fight across dozens of levels.
"Ah, in many people's hearts, Caitlin is regarded as a goddess akin to Athena."
Glyn seemed to have recovered, walking beside Howard, patting him on the shoulder and speaking enviously, "So many S-level awakened individuals, the scions of top-tier families, have failed to win Caitlin's affection. I even thought she didn't like men, yet to my surprise, you managed to win her over."
"If the people back home find out, they would undoubtedly go crazy. I am also very curious to see what kind of talent and strength you possess."
Hearing Glyn's words, Howard couldn't help but be perplexed. If Caitlin was his goddess, why wasn't he angry seeing Caitlin linking arms with him?
Generally, jealousy could drive people to do many things.
Or could it be that Glyn simply had a very good nature?
"Alright, it's time for us to take action. We can't just let a young lady resolve all the crises, can we?"
As his words fell, Glyn, now fully recharged with MP, revitalized, and with thunder light swirling around his hands, swiftly rushed towards Caitlin.
Along the way, monsters would occasionally spring out, but before they could even act, they were sent flying by the bursting thunder light.
Witnessing this scene, Howard did not make a move.
After all, Howard had previously agreed with Caitlin that he would only take action when the Extraplanar creature appeared, leaving the other monsters to Caitlin and her team to handle.
Therefore, Howard simply gestured to the members of the elite team, urging them to move forward.
Howard stayed back to cover for Abby, his thoughts stirring slightly as he cast the Dragonfire spell.
The firedragon, which had been recalled earlier, once again spiraled in the air, causing the temperature in the entire tunnel to rise dramatically with its scorching flames.
With the firedragon guarding the students, they easily repelled any vines or monsters that emerged nearby, safely reaching the position behind Caitlin and her party.
Meanwhile, Caitlin and her group reached the end of the tunnel, where they found a locked portal adorned with a skull symbol, a warning of the danger that lay beyond.
"This should be the core of these Ruins," Caitlin speculated.
"It's unexpected that the Extraplanar creature is being so cautious... it hasn't shown itself even now," she continued, scanning her surroundings warily.
Even though all the monsters seemed to have been killed, a sense of crisis lingered in the air.
Howard felt the same way, yet with the support of his two SS-level skills, he wasn't particularly worried.
Caitlin, brimming with confidence, signaled to her side and immediately, two servants wielding massive axes rushed out.
They swung their weapons ferociously, striking the lock on the portal.
With a crisp sound, the iron lock broke apart.
The two servants exchanged a glance before slowly pushing the door open.
As the grand door opened, an astonishing sight greeted them – an array of enormous containers filled the space.
The containers were brimming with liquids of different colors - green, purple, and even blood-red.
Shadows could be seen inside each one, some human and some animal.
"Is this the central laboratory?" one wondered aloud.
"Phew, the monsters inside the containers indeed seem more oppressive than those outside," another remarked.
"Senior, look quickly, it seems like there is a collection of potions inside that glass enclosure!" a voice exclaimed in surprise, drawing everyone's attention to the deepest part of the room, where a glass enclosure housed numerous potions.
It was clear that this was the final reward within the Ruins, apart from the experience and spoils garnered from the monsters.
Glyn and Caitlin became visibly excited, not taking time to think much, and directly dashed into the room.
Howard, however, pulled Abby back, stopping her from following them.
Under her puzzled gaze, he shook his head.
Nobody knew if there would be dangers lurking in the secret chamber!
Abby was no fool, quickly grasping Howard's concerns, but she whispered, "Sir, I already have someone I fancy, and you are in a romantic relationship with Miss Caitlin. Is it appropriate to hold me back like this?"
At her words, Howard promptly let go, yet a smile blossomed in his heart.
It seemed that Abby indeed harbored feelings for him. Once Headmaster Jay was taken care of, he wouldn't have to worry too much and could openly be with Abby.
By that time, anyone who dared to oppose them would never see another dawn.
Approximately ten seconds later, seeing that Caitlin, Glyn, and the others had approached the glass enclosure without encountering any danger, Howard finally eased his tension.
Steering the firedragon, he entered the room.
Thankfully, the room was spacious enough for the firedragon to move freely, otherwise, it would have been a significant handicap for Howard.
Upon entering, Howard began to meticulously survey his surroundings.
Other than the glass enclosure, the room was filled with containers, nearly a hundred of them, each harboring eerie figures within.
As he observed, Howard and Abby approached Caitlin and the group.
However, Howard didn't notice that behind him, in one of the containers, several figures abruptly opened their eyes, the white pupils fixating firmly on Howard.
"There are thirty potions in total; twenty are green and ten are blue. It's a pity there are no instructions here," one noted.
"After getting the potions, do we divide them now and individually hand them over to the Church to exchange for spoils, or should we pool them together before dividing the rewards?" Glyn voiced out.
"We should obviously collect them together! The more potions we have, the greater our merit will be, and the more rewards we can get," Caitlin retorted, her lips curling in disdain. "You're so dense, I really don't know why the tutor allowed you to come here."
"Right, there is a button here. Let's take the potions and hurry out," someone suggested.
"It seems it's our good fortune that the Extraplanar creature refuses to show up!"
Unfazed by Caitlin's disparagement, Glyn reached out and pressed the button.
Yet, to the astonishment of Glyn, Caitlin, and the rest, the glass enclosure remained sealed when the button was pressed.
Instead, the entire room began to blink with a bizarre red glow.
